Monday Morning..

I'm going to work...not feeling my best.
Wanna stay in bed...catch up on my rest.
But the almighty dollar...has to be made.
Got bills piling up...they gotta be paid.

Not enough time...to get everything done.
The week-ends's too short...and I'm on the run.
Doing this...running there...doing all that I can.
'cause come monday morning...It's work time again.

It starts all over...the same old grind.
You start wishing again...you had more time,
to do all the things...that you need to do.
And you're working all day...and half the night too.

It's work,work,work...then work some more.
And if we don't do it...we end up poor.
There's never any time...to have any fun.
'Cause we're always having to run,run,run.

But,you know what?...I'm gonna quit wishing.
To hell with the work...I'm...gonna...go...
FISHING!!! Yeah!

Hey All..
This is a TRUE poem..This came together
as I was going to work, I made a u-turn,
went home and called in sick!
Guess where I went? ;-)
You got it!!! Fishing!!!

Thanks to all for your kind words.

You go girl! A bad day fishing is better than a good day at work...LOL!! Fishing is one of my favorite things to do.

(Hey are you sure you didn't just dip your paw in the goldfish bowl and call it fishing? hehehehe)
